Guess it doesn't matter what we think, the cops were suspended, the victim wasn't arrested, and I am sure he has lawyers lined up for his payday from the brain injury. It was unnecessary, he wasn't a physical threat. Cuff him and arrest him, no need for anything else, it wasn't warranted.

I actually just see it differently. Push the guy back and we move on, he's out of the way and doesn't get arrested. The idea that he wasn't a physical threat while confronting cops in the middle of a protest is hard to buy, being old doesn't make you a non-threat. And really, in this climate do we think anything else would happen to those cops? The Mob demands and the Mob receives or the Mod destroys.
